Loss figures are approximate; consult cable manufacturers’ catalogs for
complete specifications.
In outdoor installations, be certain to weatherproof all connectors thoroughly, as water en-
tering a coaxial cable will cause losses to escalate rapidly, thus diminishing your communi-
cations effectiveness. The use of the shortest possible length of the highest quality coaxial
cable that fits within your budget will ensure the best performance from your FT-8800R.
